Just finished this one, this would b my 4th custom painted fig, a 11" Salama from Shikaruna studios, i keep looking at it and i feel that it needs something, then i look at it again and i think that it's done? What do u think?   photo_6_large by APsychoCareBear, on Flickr  20130417_234537 by APsychoCareBear, on Flickr  20130417_234616 by APsychoCareBear, on Flickr  20130417_234630 by APsychoCareBear, on Flickr  20130417_234705 by APsychoCareBear, on Flickr |

Too bright and metallic for my taste and I really dislike when I cant see the base color vinyl on a toy. Also, you might want to differentiate yourself from the other one million dudes that paint with that monster kolor palette, since they all look the same and one doesnt know who does what. BUT, its all about getting the hang of it and finding your style, so kudos to you and the paint app itself looks very good specially for a 4th custom. I wish you the best of luck!

yeah, i will echo some of the sentiments above. i am bored to tears of all metallic customs i would definitely like to see some of the original vinyl showing through that said- i think its a decent paint job. a non metallic base would be great, and keep the gold metallic accents. if you are going to keep it as is, i might suggest bringing some gold into the face. its a cool toy, and your paint managed to accent the nice parts of the toy, as opposed to a rainbow fade or whatever. keep it up- if you make any changes to this id be interested in seeing them |
